there are white men don’t wash their asses because they think it’s gay, half of you people don’t take your filthy goddamn shoes off in your own house and track street dirt and dog shit into your own homes and others don’t know how to clean your damn legs properly in the shower. whites don’t get to talk about Chinese people’s hygiene until you learn to reign in that kind of sociopathy and stop bringing back polio

white people talking about how “new pandemics always come from china” thinking they’re so smart, while ignoring that the proximity to farmland, agriculture and population density in rural areas is like several times that of Europe, Australia and USA. like stop acting as if y'all didn’t literally commit genocide by introducing the flu and go feed herbal tea your unvaxxed kids, karen

lol so this is gaining notes and making whites cry so let me explain this.

the virus spread the way it did because of collosal government mismanagement borne from nothing more than pride, bureaucracy and stupidity. The local Wuhan government have been dragged by the hair by the media and its citizens for censoring the announcement not giving the hospitals enough support to prepare for the sheer scale of the outbreak. The doctors who blew the whistle as early as December, when the outbreak could have been managable, were detained and social media posts were censored. patients were not given enough information or systemic support to even glimpse how serious it was. No one was taking safety measures and now hospitals and staff are stretched thin.

This post is, in no way or form, diminishing the blame from the government.

HOWEVER. The primary narrative among white twitter and fearmongering gossip rags has been to dehumanise Chinese people as virus-bearing hordes crossing the border to infect everyone they touch. There’s been an increase in racial violence across US, Europe and Australia and a humanitarian crisis is being used to enforce and justify exclusion, fascist rhetoric, and harsh border policies.

The discourse around sanitation and how it’s been weaponised against racialised bodies has long been a tool of white supremacists to enact racial violence, dehumanisation, and oppressive measures, and it’s up to poc to activately push back on those narratives and call out those double standards.

The narrative that the nCov spread purely because of Chinese cultural practises rather than incompetent government fuckup and repression is fascist rhetoric. It is purely based on white violence and enables far-right rhetoric.

Darlene Parent (née Gilbert) skating in pointe shoe skates. 1950s or 60s? This video gives me several different conflicting thoughts:

“Wow! That’s so pretty! She looks like a ballerina on a music box.” “Those must be so difficult to balance in. How does she skate in them?” “It must take a lot of strength to skate in those for very long.” “Her poor feet!”

It’s hard to find much more information about this video, but apparently the skates were her own invention, and she had an ironsmith make the blades and reinforce the shoes. She practiced ballet for many years and skated with the Ice Theatre of New York; I don’t know if the skates were made for a show or for kicks or what. She later became a skating coach and is apparently still teaching.

#um wow #fs #darlene parent

pixar really had to hardcore yank tony’s ‘i smoke a line of cocaine behind the school dumpster during second period’ character design to replace it with a facetuned love interest from a disney channel original movie . u already kno some pixar director mustve went back to the source material and noticed tony’s busted ass face and they had to scrap that shit immediately . he was literally too ugly to allow even a trace of his original face associate w/ the masterpiece they were abt to be making . rebooted his whole ass face then gave him his dark turtleneck and called it a day smh . mess

blackgirlsvevo

i’m screaming at the people reblogging this and saying that new tony is generic and old tony had some “character” like why do you people think that a man being ugly means he has personality . tony circa 2004 looks like he’d piss in the bushes outside your mom’s house and new tony looks like he’d wait 57 minutes for his food at a restaurant and still be nice to the waiter because they’re “just doing their best”. accept that pixar pulled the gag of the century and gave us the tony we deserve

pixar, completely remodeling tony’s clapped face: fuck a bitch named consistent character design and maintenance of the integrity of the original work. new tony is going to look like he would pay $60 for a gram of weed whether you losers like it or NOT
